#208 AI vs. Human with Post-Op AFib: Bread & Butter Series

from Core IM | Internal Medicine Podcast · host Core IM Team

Can AI manage post-op atrial fibrillation or does medicine still require human judgment? Using post-op AFib as a case study, we explore where algorithms help, where evidence falls short, and why clinical context still matters. When evidence is incomplete, and every patient is different, can AI truly practice medicine or only assist the clinicians who do? This episode explores the space between algorithms, uncertainty, and human judgment in modern medical care. 🔹Sponsor: Search “Amazon Pharmacy Nationwide Home Delivery" in your EHR to get home delivery (often same-day).
